Nutritional evaluation, Chemical Investigation of Phenolic content and antioxidant activity of Ferocactus glaucescens Ripe Fruits

Abstract
The present investigation aimed to assess the nutritional properties of the ripe fruits of Ferocactus glaucescens (DC.) for the first time. Total polyphenols and flavonoids in the methanolic extract of the fruits were determined colorimetrically and the quantification of their components was carried out using HPLC-UV. Antioxidant activity of the extract was also evaluated using DPPH+ method. Total...
